-—but they’ve never gotten any actual legal children back from their kidnapping Saudi Arabian fathers. I wonder what kind of a campaign contribution it takes to get your smuggled kid back?
When I was familiar with the process, back in 2000-2002, the illegal alien parents whose illegal alien kid was taken by the other parent back to Mexico were referred by the San Bernandino County Sheriff’s Dept in California to caseworkers in the US Dept of State Office of Children’s Issues (CA/OCS/CI) in Washington, DC.
CA/OCS/CI in turn helped the illegal alien parent in Calif, to file a “Hague Convention” Application for Return with the Mexican Ministry of Justice in Mexico City, which scheduled a hearing before a Mexican Court to seek the child’s “return” to the USA.
The whole process would often “work” with the kid ending up back in San Bernadino County.
I am pretty sure the Mexican officials were laughing the whole time they were handling these cases - as the Yankees spent hundreds of thousands of tax-payer dollars in staff time to re-import illegal aliens.
